National Black MBA 2004 Mercedes Benz Raffle and

The Winner Is…….

 

When Cindy Birsinger, was approached by her co-worker, Jeanette Lesine, to purchase a raffle ticket to support the National Black MBA Association, Cindy who is quick to support worthy causes figured that she would contribute and deduct the cost of the ticket on her tax return.  Both Cindy and Jeanette are employed by Philip Morris USA in Richmond, Virginia.  To Cindy’s amazement, Jeanette, who is President of the Richmond Metropolitan Chapter phoned her at home to inform her that she was the winner of the 2004 Mercedes Benz Cabriolet!!  Cindy’s name was drawn on Saturday, September 18, at the National Black MBA Conference in Houston, Texas.  Cindy is an Assistant Controller at Philip Morris USA. 

 

Congratulations to Cindy and thanks to everyone for your continued support of the Richmond Metropolitan Chapter!  Who knows, maybe next year it will be you!!
